BOSTON PRIVATE FINANCIAL HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements



1.     Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Boston Private Financial Holdings, Inc. (the “Company” or “BPFH”), is a bank holding company with three reportable segments: Private Banking, Investment Management, and Wealth Advisory.
Boston Private Bank & Trust Company (the “Bank” or “Boston Private Bank”) is a trust company chartered by The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”), and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. In December 2012, the Bank entered into a definitive agreement to sell its three offices in the Pacific Northwest market. The sale was completed in May 2013. Boston Private Bank currently operates in three geographic markets: New England, San Francisco Bay, and Southern California.
The Investment Management segment has two consolidated affiliates, consisting of Dalton, Greiner, Hartman, Maher & Co., LLC (“DGHM”) and Anchor Capital Advisors, LLC (“Anchor”) (together, the “Investment Managers”), both of which are registered investment advisers. Effective January 1, 2013, Anchor/Russell Capital Advisors LLC (“Anchor Russell”) merged into Anchor, with Anchor as the surviving entity. Anchor Capital Holdings, LLC, the former holding company of Anchor and Anchor Russell, which was dissolved upon the merger of Anchor and Anchor Russell, has been reinstated but will remain a pass through entity with no operations. It will continue to be disregarded for tax purposes.
The Wealth Advisory segment has two consolidated affiliates, consisting of KLS Professional Advisors Group, LLC (“KLS”) and Bingham, Osborn & Scarborough, LLC (“BOS”) (together, the “Wealth Advisors”). In the second quarter of 2012, the Company sold its affiliate Davidson Trust Company (“DTC”). Accordingly, prior period financial information related to DTC is included with discontinued operations.
The Company conducts substantially all of its business through its three reportable segments. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), and include all necessary adjustments of a normal recurring nature which, in the opinion of management, are required for a fair presentation of the results of operations and financial condition of the Company. The interim results of consolidated operations are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year.
The information in this report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Prior period amounts are reclassified whenever necessary to conform to the current period presentation.
The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Part II. Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 1: Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, as filed with the SEC. For interim reporting purposes, the Company follows the same significant accounting policies.

See Part II. Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Note 14: Noncontrolling Interests” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 for a description of the redemption values related to the redeemable noncontrolling interests. In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”), an increase in redemption value from period to period reduces income attributable to common shareholders. Decreases in redemption value from period to period increase income attributable to common shareholders, but only to the extent that the cumulative change in redemption value remains a cumulative increase since adoption of this standard in the first quarter of 2009.
(2)
Consideration paid in excess of carrying value for the repurchase of the Series B preferred stock of $11.7 million is considered a deemed dividend and, for purposes of calculating EPS, reduces net income attributable to common shareholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013.
(3)
The diluted EPS computations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 do not assume the conversion, exercise, or contingent issuance of the following shares for these periods because the result would have been anti-dilutive for the periods indicated. As a result of the anti-dilution, the potential common shares excluded from the diluted EPS computation are as follows:
 
Three months ended June 30,
 
Six months ended June 30,
 
2013
 
2012
 
2013
 
2012

(a)
If the effect of the conversion of the trust preferred securities would have been dilutive, interest expense, net of tax, related to the convertible trust preferred securities of $0.3 million and $0.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, would have been added back to net income attributable to common shareholders for diluted EPS computations for the period presented. None would be added back for the three or six months ended June 30, 2013.
(b)
Options to purchase shares of common stock, non-participating (performance-based) restricted stock, and other dilutive securities that were outstanding at period ends were not included in the computation of diluted EPS or in the above anti-dilution table because their exercise or conversion prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares during the respective periods.

3.    Reportable segments
Management Reporting
The Company has three reportable segments (Private Banking, Investment Management, and Wealth Advisory) and the Parent Company (Boston Private Financial Holdings, Inc.) (the “Holding Company”). The financial performance of the Company is managed and evaluated by these three areas. The segments are managed separately as a result of the concentrations in each function.
Measurement of Segment Profit and Assets
The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Part II. Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 1: Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.
Revenues, expenses, and assets are recorded by each segment, and separate financial statements are reviewed by their management and the Company’s segment chief executive officers.
Reconciliation of Reportable Segment Items
The following tables present a reconciliation of the revenues, profits, assets, and other significant items of reportable segments as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. Interest expense on junior subordinated debentures is reported at the Holding Company.

The U.S. government and agencies securities, government-sponsored entities securities and mortgage-backed securities in the table above as of June 30, 2013 had Standard and Poor’s credit ratings of AA+. The municipal bonds in the table above had Moody’s credit ratings of at least Aa3 or Standard and Poor’s credit ratings of A+. The other securities consisted of equity securities.
As of June 30, 2013, the amount of investment securities in an unrealized loss position greater than 12 months, as well as in total, was not significant and was primarily due to movements in interest rates. The Company has no intent to sell any securities in an unrealized loss position as of June 30, 2013 and it is not more likely than not that the Company would be forced to sell any of these securities prior to the full recovery of all unrealized loss amounts.
Cost method investments, which are included in other assets, can be temporarily impaired when the fair values decline below the amortized costs of the individual investments. There were no cost method investments with unrealized losses as of June 30, 2013. There were $0.1 million of cost method investments with unrealized losses at December 31, 2012. The Company invests primarily in low income housing partnerships which generate tax credits. The Company also holds partnership interests in venture capital funds formed to provide financing to small businesses and to promote community development. The Company had $24.2 million and $24.9 million in cost method investments included in other assets as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.

5.    Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined under GAAP as the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company determines the fair values of its financial instruments based on the fair value hierarchy established in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value. Financial instruments are considered Level 1 when valuation can be based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 financial instruments are valued using quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or models using inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data of substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Financial instruments are considered Level 3 when their values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable and when determination of the fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, available for sale securities consisted primarily of U.S. government and agencies securities, government-sponsored entities securities, municipal bonds, mortgage-backed securities, and other available for sale securities. The equities (which are categorized as other available for sale securities) are valued with prices quoted in active markets. Therefore, they have been categorized as a Level 1 measurement. The government-sponsored entities securities, municipal bonds, mortgage-backed securities, and certain investments in Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans (which are categorized as U.S. government and agencies securities) generally have quoted prices but are traded less frequently than exchange-traded securities and can be priced using market data from similar assets. Therefore, they have been categorized as a Level 2 measurement. No investments held at June 30, 2013 or December 31, 2012 were categorized as Level 3.
The Company uses interest rate customer swaps, interest rate swaps and a junior subordinated debenture interest rate swap to manage its interest rate risk, and customer foreign exchange forward contracts to manage its foreign exchange risk. The valuation of these instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. Therefore, they have been categorized as a Level 2 measurement as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. See Part I. Item 1. “Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements-Note 8: Derivatives and Hedging Activities” for further details.
To comply with the provisions of ASC 820, the Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of its derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, the Company has considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts and guarantees. Counterparty exposure is evaluated by netting positions that are subject to master netting agreements, as well as considering the amount of collateral securing the position.
The Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, although the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself and its counterparties. As a result, the Company has determined that its derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
Other investments, which are not considered available for sale investments, consist of deferred compensation trusts for the benefit of certain current or former employees, which consist of publicly traded mutual fund investments that are valued

at prices quoted in active markets. Therefore, they have been categorized as a Level 1 measurement as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. The remaining other investments categorized as Level 2 consist of the Company’s cost-method investments as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
There were no Level 3 assets at June 30, 2013 or December 31, 2012.

Impaired loans include those loans that were adjusted to the fair value of underlying collateral as required under ASC 310, Receivables. The amount does not include impaired loans that are measured based on expected future cash flows discounted at the respective loan’s original effective interest rate, as that amount is not considered a fair value measurement. The Company uses appraisals, which management may adjust to reflect estimated fair value declines, or apply other discounts to appraised values for unobservable factors resulting from its knowledge of the property or consideration of broker quotes. The appraisers use a market, income, and/or a cost approach in determining the value of the collateral. Therefore they have been categorized as a Level 3 measurement.

The estimated fair values have been determined by using available quoted market information or other appropriate valuation methodologies. The aggregate fair value amounts presented do not represent the underlying value of the Company taken as a whole.
The fair value estimates provided are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and the characteristics of the financial instrument. The estimates do not provide for any premiums or discounts that could result from concentrations of ownership of a financial instrument. Because no active market exists for some of the Company’s financial instruments, certain fair value estimates are based on subjective judgments regarding current economic conditions, risk characteristics of the financial instruments, future expected loss experience, prepayment assumptions, and other factors. The resulting estimates involve uncertainties and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes made to any of the underlying assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
Cash and cash equivalents
The carrying value reported in the balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of their maturities and are classified as Level 1.
Loans, net
Fair value estimates are based on loans with similar financial characteristics. Fair values of commercial and residential mortgage loans are estimated by discounting contractual cash flows adjusted for prepayment estimates and using discount rates approximately equal to current market rates on loans with similar credit and interest rate characteristics and maturities. The fair value estimates for home equity and other loans are based on outstanding loan terms and pricing in the local markets. The method of estimating the fair value of the loans disclosed in the table above does not incorporate the exit price concept in the presentation of the fair value of these financial instruments. Net loans are included in the Level 3 fair value category based upon the inputs and valuation techniques used.
Loans held for sale
Loans held for sale are recorded at the lower of cost or fair value in the aggregate. Fair value estimates are based on actual commitments to sell the loans to investors at an agreed upon price or current market prices if rates have changed since the time the loan closed. In December 2012, the Bank entered into an agreement to sell its three offices in the Pacific Northwest market. The loans related to this transaction were transferred from the loan portfolio to loans held for sale. The fair value indicated for these loans held for sale was based on the agreed upon offer in the pending transaction. Accordingly, loans held for sale are included in the Level 2 fair value category.

BOSTON PRIVATE FINANCIAL HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements - (Continued)

Other financial assets
Other financial assets consist of accrued interest and fees receivable, stock in Federal Home Loan Banks (“FHLBs”), and the cash surrender value of bank-owned life insurance, for which the carrying amount approximates fair value, and are classified as Level 2.
Deposits
The fair values reported for transaction accounts (demand, NOW, savings, and money market) equal their respective book values reported on the balance sheets and are classified as Level 2. The fair values disclosed are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair values for certificates of deposit are based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rates used are representative of approximate rates currently offered on certificates of deposit with similar remaining maturities and are classified as Level 2.
Deposits held for sale
Deposits held for sale are recorded at the lower of cost or fair value. All of the deposits held for sale at December 31, 2012 relate to the Pacific Northwest transaction. Fair value estimates are based on actual agreed upon price and premium per the agreement. Accordingly, deposits held for sale are included in the Level 2 fair value category.
Securities sold under agreements to repurchase
The fair value of securities sold under agreements to repurchase are estimated based on contractual cash flows discounted at the Bank’s incremental borrowing rate for FHLB borrowings with similar maturities and have been classified as Level 2.
Federal funds purchased
The carrying amount of federal funds purchased approximates fair value due to their short-term nature and have been classified as Level 2.
Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings
The fair value reported for FHLB borrowings is estimated based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate used is based on the Bank’s estimated current incremental borrowing rate for FHLB borrowings of similar maturities and have been classified as Level 2.
Junior subordinated debentures
The fair value of the junior subordinated debentures issued by Boston Private Capital Trust I and the junior subordinated debentures acquired in the acquisitions of First Private Bank & Trust, Gibraltar Private Bank & Trust Company (Gibraltar Private Bank & Trust Company was subsequently sold in 2009), and Charter Private Bank are estimated based on either agreements to redeem the securities at par value and/ or the future expectation of the Company to redeem the securities at par value and therefore have been classified as Level 2. The fair value of the junior subordinated debentures issued by Boston Private Capital Trust II was estimated using Level 3 inputs such as the interest rates on these securities, current rates for similar debt, and a consideration for illiquidity of trading in the debt.
Other financial liabilities
Other financial liabilities consist of accrued interest payable and deferred compensation for which the carrying amount approximates fair value and are classified as Level 2.
Financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk
The Bank’s commitments to originate loans and for unused lines and outstanding letters of credit are primarily at market interest rates and therefore, the carrying amount approximates fair value.

6.    Loan Portfolio and Credit Quality
The Bank’s lending activities are conducted principally in the regions of New England, San Francisco Bay, and Southern California. In December 2012, the Bank entered into an agreement to sell its three offices in the Pacific Northwest

market, and therefore the loans included in the Pacific Northwest transaction were classified as held for sale and are not included in the December 31, 2012 data below. The sale was completed in May 2013.
The Bank originates single and multi-family residential loans, commercial real estate loans, commercial and industrial loans, construction and land loans, and home equity and other consumer loans. Most loans are secured by borrowers’ personal or business assets. The ability of the Bank’s single family residential and consumer borrowers to honor their repayment commitments is generally dependent on the overall economic conditions within the Bank’s lending areas. Commercial, construction, and land borrowers’ ability to repay is generally dependent upon the health of the economy and real estate values, including, in particular, the performance of the construction sector. Accordingly, the ultimate collectability of a substantial portion of the Bank’s loan portfolio is susceptible to changing conditions in the New England, San Francisco Bay, and Southern California economies and real estate markets.
Total loans include deferred loan fees/ (costs), net, of ($4.1) million and ($4.2) million as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. Deferred loan fees/ (costs) include unamortized premiums or discounts related to mortgage loans purchased by the Bank.

The Bank’s policy is to discontinue the accrual of interest on a loan when the collectability of principal or interest is in doubt. In certain instances, although infrequent, loans that have become 90 days or more past due may remain on accrual status if the value of the collateral securing the loan is sufficient to cover principal and interest and the loan is in the process of collection. There were less than $0.1 million of loans 90 days or more past due, but still accruing, as of June 30, 2013 and $3.6 million as of December 31, 2012. The Bank’s policy for returning a loan to accrual status requires the loan to be brought current and for the client to show a history of making timely payments (generally six consecutive months). For troubled debt restructured loans (“TDRs”), a return to accrual status generally requires timely payments for a period of six months in accordance with the restructured loan terms, along with meeting other criteria.

Does not include one commercial and industrial 30-59 day delinquent loan totaling $0.3 million in loans held for sale as of December 31, 2012.
Nonaccruing and delinquent loans are affected by factors, including economic and business conditions, such as interest rates and unemployment levels, and real estate collateral values, among others. In periods of prolonged economic declines, borrowers may become more severely impacted over time as liquidity levels decline and the borrower’s ability to continue to make payments deteriorates. With respect to real estate collateral values, the declines from the peak, as well as the value of the real estate at the time of origination versus the current value, can impact the level of problem loans. For instance, if the loan to value ratio at the time of renewal has increased due to the decline in the real estate value since origination, the loan may no longer meet the Bank’s underwriting standards and not be renewed.
Generally when a collateral dependent commercial loan becomes impaired, an updated appraisal of the collateral, if appropriate, is obtained. In limited circumstances, an updated appraisal is obtained on residential and home equity loans that are classified as impaired. If the impaired loan has not been upgraded to a performing status within a reasonable amount of time, the Bank continues to obtain newer appraisals, approximately every 12 to 18 months or sooner, if deemed necessary, especially during periods of declining values.
The past due status of a loan is determined in accordance with its contractual repayment terms. All loan types are reported past due when one scheduled payment is due and unpaid for 30 days or more.

Credit Quality Indicators
The Bank uses a risk rating system to monitor the credit quality of its loan portfolio. Loan classifications are assessments made by the Bank of the status of the loans based on the facts and circumstances known to the Bank, including management’s judgment, at the time of assessment. Some or all of these classifications may change in the future if there are unexpected changes in the financial condition of the borrower, including but not limited to, changes resulting from continuing deterioration in general economic conditions on a national basis or in the local markets in which the Bank operates adversely affecting, among other things, real estate values. Such conditions, as well as other factors which adversely affect borrowers’ ability to service or repay loans, typically result in changes in loan default and charge-off rates, and increased provisions for loan losses, which would adversely affect the Company’s financial performance and financial condition. These circumstances are not entirely foreseeable and, as a result, it may not be possible to accurately reflect them in the Company’s analysis of credit risk.
A summary of the rating system used by the Bank, repeated here from Part II. Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Note 1: Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 follows:
Acceptable or Pass - All loans graded as acceptable or pass are considered acceptable credit quality by the Bank and are grouped for purposes of calculating the allowance for loan losses. Only commercial loans, including commercial real estate, commercial and industrial loans, and construction and land loans are given a numerical grade. For residential, home equity and consumer loans, the Bank classifies loans as acceptable or pass unless there is known information such as delinquency or client requests for modifications which would then generally result in a risk rating such as special mention or more severe depending on the factors.
Special Mention - Loans rated in this category are defined as having potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may, at some future date, result in the deterioration of the repayment prospects for the credit or the Bank’s credit position. These loans are currently protected but have the potential to deteriorate to a substandard rating. For commercial loans, the borrower’s financial performance may be inconsistent or below forecast, creating the possibility of liquidity problems and shrinking debt service coverage. In loans having this rating, the primary source of repayment is still good, but there is increasing reliance on collateral or guarantor support. Collectability of the loan is not yet in jeopardy. In particular, loans in this category are considered more variable than other categories, since they will typically migrate through categories more quickly.
Substandard - Loans rated in this category are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. A substandard credit has a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Substandard loans may be either still accruing or nonaccruing depending upon the severity of the risk and other factors such as the value of the collateral, if any, and past due status.
Doubtful - Loans rated in this category indicate that collection or liquidation in full on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, is highly questionable and improbable. Loans in this category are usually on nonaccrual and classified as impaired.

Recorded investment represents the client loan balance net of historical charge-offs and historical nonaccrual interest paid, which was applied to principal.
When management determines that it is probable that the Bank will not collect all principal and interest on a loan in accordance with the original loan terms, or in accordance with its restructured terms, if the loan is a TDR, the loan is designated as impaired.
Loans that are designated as impaired require an analysis to determine the amount of impairment, if any. Impairment would be indicated as a result of the carrying value of the loan exceeding the estimated collateral value, less costs to sell, for collateral dependent loans or the net present value of the projected cash flow, discounted at the loan’s contractual effective interest rate, for loans not considered to be collateral dependent. Generally, shortfalls in the analysis on collateral dependent loans would result in the impairment amount being charged-off to the allowance for loan losses. Shortfalls on cash flow dependent loans may be carried as specific reserve allocations to the general reserve unless a known loss is determined to have occurred, in which case such known loss is charged-off.
Loans in the held for sale category are carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value in the aggregate and are excluded from the allowance for loan losses analysis.

BOSTON PRIVATE FINANCIAL HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements - (Continued)


The Bank may, under certain circumstances, restructure loans as a concession to borrowers who are experiencing financial difficulty. Such loans are classified as TDRs and are included in impaired loans. TDRs typically result from the Bank’s loss mitigation activities which, among other things, could include rate reductions, payment extensions, and/or principal forgiveness. TDRs totaled $57.6 million and $54.5 million at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. Of the $57.6 million in TDRs at June 30, 2013, $29.3 million were on accrual status. Of the $54.5 million in TDRs at December 31, 2012, $26.7 million were on accrual status.
Since all TDRs are considered impaired loans, they are individually evaluated for impairment. The resulting impairment, if any, would have an impact on the allowance for loan losses as a specific reserve or charge-off. If, prior to the classification as a TDR, the loan was not impaired, there would have been a general reserve on the particular loan. Therefore, depending upon the result of the impairment analysis, there could be an increase or decrease in the related allowance for loan losses. Many loans initially categorized as TDRs are already on nonaccrual status and are already considered impaired. Therefore, there is generally not a material change to the allowance for loan losses when a nonaccruing loan is categorized as a TDR.
The following tables present the balance of TDRs that were restructured or defaulted during the periods indicated:

8.    Derivatives and Hedging Activities
The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its assets and liabilities and, to a lesser extent, the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are generally determined by interest rates. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to certain fixed and variable rate loan assets and fixed and variable rate borrowings.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
The Company’s objective in using derivatives is to add stability to interest income and expense and to manage the risk related to exposure to changes in interest rates. To accomplish this objective, the Holding Company entered into an interest rate swap in the second quarter of 2010 with a notional amount of $75 million related to the Holding Company’s cash outflows associated with the subordinated debt related to trust preferred securities to protect against an increase in the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). The interest rate swap had an effective date of December 30, 2010 and a term of five years. As of December 30, 2010, the subordinated debt switched from a fixed rate of 6.25% to a variable rate of three-month LIBOR plus 1.68%. The interest rate swap effectively fixed the Holding Company’s interest rate payments on the $75 million of debt at 4.45%.
The Bank also entered into two interest rate swaps during the second quarter of 2013, each with a notional amount of $25 million. The interest rate swaps have effective dates of March 1, 2014 and June 1, 2014, respectively, and have terms of five years. The Bank’s risk management objective and strategy for this interest rate swap is to reduce its exposure to variability in interest-related cash outflows attributable to changes in the LIBOR swap rate associated with borrowing programs for each of the 5 year periods, initially expected to be accomplished with LIBOR-indexed brokered deposits, but may also include LIBOR-indexed FHLB advances. The interest rate swaps will effectively fix the Bank’s interest payments on $25 million of its LIBOR-indexed debt at 1.6775% and the second $25 million of its LIBOR-indexed debt at 1.755%.
The Company uses the “Hypothetical Derivative Method” described in ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”), for quarterly prospective and retrospective assessments of hedge effectiveness, as well as for measurements of hedge ineffectiveness. Under this method, the Company assesses the effectiveness of each hedging relationship by comparing the changes in cash flows of the derivative hedging instrument with the changes in cash flows of the designated hedged transactions. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is initially reported in other comprehensive income (“OCI”) (outside of earnings) and subsequently reclassified to earnings in interest and dividend income when the hedged transactions affect earnings. Ineffectiveness resulting from the hedge is recorded as a gain or loss in the consolidated statement of operations as part of fees and other income. The Company had no hedge ineffectiveness recognized in earnings during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. The Company also monitors the risk of counterparty default on an ongoing basis.
A portion of the balance reported in accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest income or expense as interest payments are made or received on the Company’s interest rate swap. During the next twelve months, the Company estimates that $2.0 million will be reclassified as an increase in interest expense.

Non-designated Hedges
Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and result from two different services the Bank provides to qualified commercial clients. The Bank offers certain derivative products directly to such clients. The Bank economically hedges derivative transactions executed with commercial clients by entering into mirror-image, offsetting derivatives with third parties. Derivative transactions executed as part of these programs are not designated in ASC 815-qualifying hedging relationships and are, therefore, marked-to-market through earnings each period. Because the derivatives have mirror-image contractual terms, the changes in fair value substantially offset through earnings. Fees earned in connection with the execution of derivatives related to this program are recognized in the consolidated statement of operations in other income. The derivative asset and liability values above include an adjustment related to the consideration of credit risk required under ASC 820, of less than $0.1 million in earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Bank had six and 11 interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $24.9 million and $55.7 million, respectively, related to this program. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Bank also had six foreign currency exchange contracts with notional amounts of $5.3 million and $3.7 million, respectively, related to this program.

The Holding Company and the Bank have agreements with their derivative counterparties that contain provisions where, if the Holding Company or Bank defaults on any of its indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then the Holding Company or the Bank could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations. The Holding Company and the Bank were in compliance with these provisions as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
The Holding Company and the Bank also have agreements with certain of their derivative counterparties that contain provisions where, if the Holding Company or Bank fails to maintain its status as a well- or adequately-capitalized institution, then the counterparty could terminate the derivative positions and the Holding Company or the Bank would be required to settle its obligations under the agreements. The Holding Company and the Bank were in compliance with these provisions as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
Certain of the Holding Company and the Bank’s agreements with their derivative counterparties contain provisions where, if specified events or conditions occur that materially change the Holding Company’s or the Bank’s creditworthiness in an adverse manner, the Holding Company or the Bank may be required to fully collateralize their obligations under the derivative instruments. The Holding Company and the Bank were in compliance with these provisions as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the termination amounts related to collateral determinations of derivatives in a liability position was $6.0 million and $8.4 million, respectively. The Company has minimum collateral posting thresholds with its derivative counterparty and has posted collateral of $8.4 million and $10.4 million as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, against its obligation under this agreement.

The effective tax rate for continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2013 of 34.0%, with related tax expense of $16.4 million, was calculated based on a projected 2013 annual effective tax rate. The effective tax rate was less than the statutory rate of 35% due primarily to earnings from tax-exempt investments, income tax credits, and income attributable to noncontrolling interests. These items were partially offset by state and local income taxes and an increase in unrecognized tax benefits.
The effective tax rate for continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2012 of 30.1%, with related tax expense of $9.1 million, was calculated based on a projected 2012 annual effective tax rate. The effective tax rate was less than the statutory rate of 35% due primarily to earnings from tax-exempt investments, income tax credits, and income attributable to noncontrolling interests. These items were partially offset by state and local income taxes.
The effective tax rate for continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2013 is greater than the effective tax rate for the same period in 2012 due primarily to an increase in unrecognized tax benefits, an increase in state and local income taxes, and a higher level of income before taxes in 2013 as compared to 2012.
As of June 30, 2013, the Company’s gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits is $6.4 million and the net amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate is $1.0 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company’s gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits increased by $1.6 million, from $4.8 million at December 31, 2012, to $6.4 million at June 30, 2013. The $1.6 million increase relates primarily to a change in the interpretation of tax law with respect to certain tax positions taken on previously filed tax returns. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company’s accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits increased by $0.6 million, from $0.3 million at December 31, 2012, to $0.9 million as of June 30, 2013. The Company believes it is reasonably possible

38

BOSTON PRIVATE FINANCIAL HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements - (Continued)

that the gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits may decrease within the next twelve months by a range of $4.3 million to $5.8 million as a result of settlements with state taxing authorities and the Company’s plan to file an accounting method change for income tax purposes.
Contingent consideration related to the 2009 and 2012 divestiture of certain affiliates, primarily related to the revenue sharing agreement with Westfield Capital Management Company, LLC, is also reflected under “discontinued operations” in the table above. The profits and losses attributable to owners other than the Company are reflected under “noncontrolling interests” in the table above.

10.    Noncontrolling Interests
At the Company, noncontrolling interests typically consist of equity owned by management of the Company’s respective majority-owned affiliates. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in the consolidated statements of operations represents the net income allocated to the noncontrolling interest owners of the affiliates. Net income allocated to the noncontrolling interest owners was $1.0 million and $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $1.9 million and $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
On the consolidated balance sheets, noncontrolling interests are included as the sum of the capital and undistributed profits allocated to the noncontrolling interest owners. Typically, this balance is included in a company’s permanent shareholders’ equity in the consolidated balance sheets. When the noncontrolling interest owners’ rights include certain redemption features, as described in ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, such redeemable noncontrolling interests are classified as mezzanine equity and are not included in permanent shareholders’ equity. Due to the redemption features of the noncontrolling interests, the Company had redeemable noncontrolling interests held in mezzanine equity in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of of $17.7 million and $19.3 million at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. The aggregate amount of such redeemable noncontrolling equity interests are recorded at the estimated maximum redemption values. In addition, as discussed below, the Company had $0.1 million noncontrolling interests included in permanent shareholder’s equity at June 30, 2013.
Each affiliate operating agreement provides the Company and/or the noncontrolling interests with contingent call or put redemption features used for the orderly transfer of noncontrolling equity interests between the affiliate noncontrolling interest owners and the Company at either a contractually predetermined fair value, multiple of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA), or fair value. The Company may liquidate these noncontrolling interests in cash, shares of the Company’s common stock, or other forms of consideration dependent on the operating agreement. These agreements are discussed in Part II. Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data – Note 14: Noncontrolling Interests” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.
Generally, these put and call redemption features refer to shareholder rights of both the Company and the noncontrolling interest owners of the Company’s majority-owned affiliate companies. The affiliate company noncontrolling interests generally take the form of limited liability company (LLC) units, profits interests, or common stock (collectively, the “noncontrolling equity interests”). In most circumstances, the put and call redemption features generally relate to the Company’s right and, in some cases, obligation to purchase and the noncontrolling equity interests’ right to sell their equity interests. There are various events that could cause the puts or calls to be exercised, such as a change in control, death, disability, retirement, resignation or termination. The puts and calls are generally to be exercised at the then fair value or a contractually agreed upon approximation thereof. The terms of these rights vary and are governed by the respective individual operating and legal documents.
During the second quarter of 2013, the Company sold certain repurchased noncontrolling interests to principals at Anchor with modified contingent call and put redemption features. These modified features have the same terms and conditions as the previously issued noncontrolling interests with the exception that they require the approval of the Company’s CEO in order to be exercised. Therefore, they are no longer considered to be mandatorily redeemable and are not included in the redeemable noncontrolling interests within mezzanine equity, but rather within permanent equity.

11.    Equity
On April 24, 2013, the Company closed the public offering of 2,000,000 depositary shares (the “Depositary Shares”) pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement dated April 17, 2013, previously disclosed by the Company. Each Depositary Share represents a 2.5% interest in a share of the Company’s 6.95% Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series D, par value $1.00 per share and liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (the “Series D preferred stock”). The Company received $47.8 million from the issuance, after issuance costs.
Upon the issuance of the Series D preferred stock on April 24, 2013, the ability of the Company to declare and pay dividends on, or purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire, shares of its preferred stock or any securities of the Company that rank junior to the Series D preferred stock was subject to certain restrictions in the event that the Company does not declare and pay (or set aside) dividends on the Series D preferred stock for the last preceding quarterly dividend period.
Also on April 24, 2013, the Company repurchased all 400.81221 shares of the Company’s Series B Non-Cumulative Perpetual Contingent Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per share (the “Series B preferred stock”), held by BP Holdco, L.P. pursuant to a Stock Repurchase Agreement, dated as of April 16, 2013, previously disclosed by the Company.

12.    Restructuring
On May 27, 2011, the Company completed the merger of its four private banks, operating in the New England, San Francisco Bay, Southern California and Pacific Northwest markets, under a single Massachusetts charter. During this period of restructuring, the Company sought to reduce expenses by simplifying the portfolio businesses, streamlining the Holding Company structure, while incurring certain merger-related expenses such as severance charges, costs to terminate contracts, legal, audit and consulting costs, and other costs. The Company had substantially completed the merger-related restructuring as planned in the first half of 2012.
During the second half of 2012, the Company implemented a senior executive restructuring of the Holding Company leadership and Bank management. The purpose of this restructuring was to create a more streamlined organization and to refine the Company’s cost base. To implement the new structure the Company incurred an additional severance charge

of $4.8 million, all during the second half of 2012. The Company expects no additional severance charges associated with this initiative.
Restructuring expenses incurred since the plans of restructuring were first implemented in 2011 totaled $14.0 million with the Private Banking segment incurring $9.5 million, and the remaining $4.5 million incurred by the Holding Company.

13.    Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-02, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. The amendments to this update require entities to present information about reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income in a single note or on the face of the financial statements. The new guidance was effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted. The Company did not early adopt. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In July 2012, the FASB issued updated guidance, ASU 2012-02, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. The amendments in this update regarding the impairment testing applicable to indefinite-lived intangible assets, is similar to the impairment guidance issued in ASU 2011-08, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment, applicable to goodwill. Under the updated guidance, an entity may assess qualitative factors (such as changes in management, key personnel, strategy, key technology or customers) that may impact the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset and lead to the determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the asset is less than its carrying value. If an entity determines that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the intangible asset is less than its carrying value, an impairment test must be performed. The impairment test requires an entity to calculate the estimated fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset. If the carrying value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeds its estimated fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the excess. The updated guidance is effective for annual and interim indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012 and early adoption is permitted provided the company has not yet performed its 2012 impairment test or issued its financial statements. The Company did not early adopt. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

BOSTON PRIVATE FINANCIAL HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements - (Continued)

In December 2011, the FASB issued new guidance, ASU 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities and in January 2013, the FASB issued, ASU 2013-01, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. ASU 2011-11 requires entities to disclose both gross and net information about both instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the statement of financial position and instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting arrangement. ASU 2013-01 limits the scope of disclosures to derivatives, repurchase agreements and securities lending arrangements. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after January 1, 2013 and requires a retrospective application for all comparative periods which are presented. The adoption of these ASUs did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

14.    Subsequent Events
The Company evaluated subsequent events through the date the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements were issued. Pursuant to the requirements of ASC 855, Subsequent Events, there were no events or transactions during the subsequent event reporting period that required disclosure in the unaudited consolidated interim financial statements.

Net income attributable to the Company was $21.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $14.2 million in the same period of 2012. The Company recognized diluted earnings per share of $0.11 for the three months ended June 30, 2013, compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.17 for the same period of 2012.
Key items that affected the Company’s results in the second quarter of 2013 compared to the same period of 2012 include:
The Company issued Series D preferred stock for net proceeds of $47.8 million, and at the same time repurchased all of its Series B preferred stock for $69.8 million. The repurchase of the Series B preferred stock resulted in a deemed dividend, which reduced net income available to common shareholders by $11.7 million and diluted EPS by $0.14 per share.
The Bank completed the sale of its Pacific Northwest offices, recording a $10.6 million pretax gain on sale.
The Company recorded a $2.0 million credit to the provision for loan losses for the three months ended June 30, 2013, compared to a provision for loan losses of $1.7 million in the same period of 2012. The credit to the provision for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was driven by recoveries of previously charged-off loan amounts, a reduction in adversely-classified loans and continued improvement in credit quality.
The low interest rate environment continues to affect net interest income. Net interest margin (“NIM”) decreased 21 basis points to 3.14% for the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012. Net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $43.9 million, a decrease of $2.7 million, or 6%, compared to the same period in 2012. This decrease was due to lower average yields on loans and investments and increased volume of deposits, partially offset by an increase in volume of the loan portfolio, lower average rates paid on the Company’s deposits and borrowings, and a decrease in volume of borrowings.
The Company’s Private Banking segment reported net income attributable to the Company of $19.2 million in the second quarter of 2013, compared to net income attributable to the Company of $13.0 million in the same period of 2012. The $6.2 million, or 48%, increase was a result of the gain on sale of the Pacific Northwest offices, the credit to the provision for loan losses in the second quarter of 2013, and increased fee-based noninterest income, offset by decreased net interest income, increased noninterest expense, and increased income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2013. AUM increased

44


$0.4 billion, or 12%, to $4.1 billion at June 30, 2013 from $3.7 billion at June 30, 2012, due to both net inflows and investment performance.
The Company’s Investment Management segment reported net income attributable to the Company of $1.2 million in the second quarter of 2013, compared to net income attributable to the Company of $0.8 million in the same period of 2012. The $0.4 million, or 57%, increase was due to increases in investment management and trust fees, partially offset by increased operating expense. Most fee-based revenue is determined based on beginning-of-period AUM data, and, as a result, the increase in investment management and trust fees was related to changes in AUM from March 31, 2012 through March 31, 2013. AUM increased $1.2 billion, or 15%, to $9.1 billion at June 30, 2013 from $8.0 billion at June 30, 2012, due to investment performance, partially offset by net outflows.
The Company’s Wealth Advisory segment reported net income attributable to the Company of $1.7 million in the second quarter of 2013, compared to net income attributable to the Company of $1.1 million in the same period of 2012. The $0.6 million, or 52%, increase was due to increases in wealth advisory fee revenue, partially offset by increased operating expenses, including a legal settlement expense, increased salaries and employee benefits expense and increased professional services expense, and income tax expense. AUM increased $1.0 billion, or 14%, to $8.5 billion at June 30, 2013 from $7.5 billion at June 30, 2012, due to positive net flows and investment performance.

Critical Accounting Policies
Critical accounting policies reflect significant judgments and uncertainties, and could potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. The Company believes that its most critical accounting policies upon which its financial condition depends, and which involve the most complex or subjective decisions or assessments are the allowance for loan and lease losses, the valuation of goodwill and intangible assets and analysis for impairment, and tax estimates. These policies are discussed in Part II. Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Policies” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. There have been no changes to these policies through the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Total Assets. Total assets decreased $498.1 million, or 8%, to $6.0 billion at June 30, 2013 from $6.5 billion at December 31, 2012. This decrease was due to deposit outflows in the first half of 2013, the repurchase of the Company’s Series B preferred stock, and the sale of the Pacific Northwest banking offices, offset by the issuance of the Company’s Series D preferred stock.
Cash and Investments. Total cash and investments (consisting of cash and cash equivalents, investment securities, and stock in the FHLBs) decreased $217.6 million, or 21%, to $0.8 billion, or 14% of total assets at June 30, 2013 from $1.1 billion, or 16% of total assets at December 31, 2012. The decrease was due to the $241.1 million, or 78%, decrease in cash and cash equivalents, partially offset by the $24.9 million, or 4%, increase in investment securities. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents is the net result of short-term fluctuations in liquidity due to changes in levels of deposits, borrowings and loans outstanding. Other increases/decreases in cash during the first half of 2013 includes the repurchase of the Company’s Series B preferred stock for $69.8 million, the retirement of $10.5 million junior subordinated debt for $9.5 million, offset by the issuance of the Company’s Series D preferred stock for $47.8 million, net of issuance costs. See Part I. Item 1. “Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 11: Equity” for further details of the Company’s equity transactions.
The majority of the investments held by the Company are held by the Bank. The Bank’s investment policy requires management to maintain a portfolio of securities which will provide liquidity necessary to facilitate funding of loans, to cover deposit fluctuations, and to mitigate the Bank’s overall balance sheet exposure to interest rate risk, while at the same time earning a satisfactory return on the funds invested. The securities in which the Bank may invest are subject to regulation and are generally limited to securities that are considered “investment grade.”
Investment maturities, redemptions, principal payments, and sales of the Company’s available for sale securities provided $139.9 million of cash proceeds during the six months ended June 30, 2013, which was used to purchase new investments or fund new loans. The timing of sales and reinvestments is based on various factors, including management’s evaluation of interest rate trends, the credit risk of municipal securities and the Company’s liquidity. The Company’s available for sale investment portfolio carried a total of $5.3 million of unrealized gains and $6.4 million of unrealized losses at June 30, 2013, compared to $9.9 million of unrealized gains and $1.1 million of unrealized losses at December 31, 2012.
No impairment losses were recognized through earnings related to available for sale securities during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. The amount of investment securities in an unrealized loss position greater than 12 months as well as the total amount of unrealized losses was not significant and was primarily due to movements in interest rates since the securities were purchased. At June 30, 2013, the Company had no intent to sell any securities in an unrealized loss position at that date and it is not more likely than not that the Company would be forced to sell any of these securities prior to the full recovery of all unrealized losses.
See Part I. Item 1. “Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 4: Investments” for further details of the Company’s investment securities.
Loans held for sale. Loans held for sale decreased $296.0 million, or 96%, to $12.4 million at June 30, 2013 from $308.4 million at December 31, 2012. $276.7 million of the December 31, 2012 loans held for sale balance, on the consolidated balance sheet, relates to the previously announced agreement to sell the Bank’s three Pacific Northwest offices. The Bank completed the sale during the second quarter of 2013. Excluding the loans held for sale related to the Pacific Northwest transaction, loans held for sale decreased $19.3 million from December 31, 2012 to June 30, 2013. In the first quarter of 2013, the Bank transferred $9.1 million of loans from its portfolio into held for sale. These residential loans were then sold during the first quarter of 2013. The balance of loans held for sale is usually related to the timing and volume of residential loans originated for sale and the ultimate sale transaction which is typically executed within a short-time following the loan origination.
Goodwill and intangible assets, net. Goodwill and intangible assets decreased $2.2 million, or 2%, to $132.9 million at June 30, 2013 from $135.1 million at December 31, 2012. The decrease is due to amortization of intangible assets. The Company tests goodwill for impairment on an annual basis and between annual dates if events or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying value, in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other. Management concluded at June 30, 2013 that there were no triggering events during the six months then ended. Management will perform its annual goodwill impairment testing in the fourth quarter of 2013.
Other. Other assets, consisting of OREO, premises and equipment, fees receivable, accrued interest receivable, deferred income taxes, net, and other assets, decreased $10.2 million, or 4%, to $231.3 million at June 30, 2013 compared to $241.5 million at December 31, 2012. Decreases in deferred income taxes, net, OREO, stock in the FHLB, and other assets were offset by increases in fees receivable and premises and equipment.

46



OREO decreased $2.8 million, or 79%, to $0.8 million at June 30, 2013 from $3.6 million at December 31, 2012. The decrease is due to the sale of four OREO properties during the first half of 2013.
Deferred income taxes, net decreased $2.2 million, or 4%, to $60.0 million at June 30, 2013 from $62.2 million at December 31, 2012. The decrease is primarily due to current year deferred tax expense, as well as certain stock compensation awards that have expired during the first six months of 2013, net against the current year tax-effect of other comprehensive income. At June 30, 2013, no valuation allowance on the net deferred tax asset was required, other than for capital losses, due primarily to the expectation of future taxable income, the availability of historical taxable income, and the ability to recover taxes paid in the current and prior years.
Other assets, which consist primarily of Bank-Owned Life Insurance (“BOLI”), prepaid expenses, investment in partnerships, the fair value of interest rate derivatives, and other receivables, decreased $8.3 million, or 7%, to $116.6 million at June 30, 2013 from $125.0 million at December 31, 2012. $3.2 million of the December 31, 2012 other asset balance, on the consolidated balance sheet, relates to the other assets held for sale related to the Pacific Northwest transaction. The decrease is primarily due to the sale of the Pacific Northwest offices, the settlement of certain receivables, and decreases in prepaid balances, primarily related to FDIC prepaid insurance premiums, slightly offset by changes in the fair value of other investments.
Deposits. Total deposits decreased $308.7 million, or 6%, to $4.6 billion, at June 30, 2013 from $4.9 billion at December 31, 2012. Deposit balances declined during the first half of 2013 due to expected outflows from several client accounts with high balances at year end 2012.

Does not include deposits held for sale of none at June 30, 2013 and $194.1 million at December 31, 212.
Borrowings. Total borrowings (consisting of securities sold under agreements to repurchase, federal funds purchased, FHLB borrowings, and junior subordinated debentures) increased $5.5 million, or 1%, to $673.6 million at June 30, 2013 from $668.1 million at December 31, 2012. Federal funds purchased increased to $65.0 million at June 30, 2013 from none at December 31, 2012. From time to time, the Bank purchases federal funds from the FHLB and other banking institutions to supplement its liquidity position. FHLB borrowings increased $40.6 million, or 10%, to $448.7 million at June 30, 2013 from $408.1 million at December 31, 2012. FHLB borrowings are generally used to provide additional funding for loan growth when it is in excess of deposit growth and to manage interest rate risk, but can also be used as an additional source of liquidity for the Bank. Repurchase agreements decreased $89.6 million, or 77%, to $26.7 million at June 30, 2013 from $116.3 million at December 31, 2012. Repurchase agreements are generally linked to commercial demand deposit accounts with an overnight sweep feature. In addition the Company repurchased $10.5 million of the junior subordinated debentures during the first half of 2013.
Other. Other liabilities, which consist primarily of accrued interest, accrued bonus, the fair value of interest rate derivatives, and other accrued expenses decreased $5.4 million, or 6%, to $90.0 million at June 30, 2013 from $95.4 million at December 31, 2012. The decrease is primarily due to payments on 2012 accrued compensation and other payables.

Loan Portfolio and Credit Quality
Loans. Total portfolio loans increased $24.6 million, or 1%, to $4.8 billion, or 81%, of total assets at June 30, 2013, from $4.8 billion, or 74%, of total assets at December 31, 2012. Increases in residential loans of $32.3 million, or 2%, construction and land loans of $12.7 million, or 9%, and home equity and other consumer loans of $2.0 million or 1%, were partially offset by decreases in commercial real estate loans of $12.7 million, or 1% and commercial and industrial loans of $9.7 million, or 1%.
Geographic concentration. The following table presents the Bank’s outstanding loan balance concentrations at June 30, 2013 based on the location of the lender’s regional offices. Loans from the Holding Company to certain principals of the Company’s affiliates and relating to the sale of a previous affiliate, and loans at the Company’s non-banking segments are identified as “Other, net.”

The allowance for loan losses is reported as a reduction of outstanding loan balances, and totaled $80.8 million and $84.1 million at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
The allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2013 decreased $3.3 million, or 4%, from December 31, 2012 due to net charge-offs, primarily in the first quarter, and a provision credit of $2.0 million. The provision credit of $2.0 million was recorded during the second quarter of 2013 due primarily to the decline in adversely-classified loans, continued positive trends in net loan loss experience, net recoveries during the second quarter, and the change in the mix of the loan portfolio, offset by an increase in total loans. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans decreased 8 basis points to 1.67% at June 30, 2013 from 1.75% at December 31, 2012. See Part I. Item 1. “Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 7: Allowance for Loan Losses” for an analysis of the Company’s allowance for loan losses.
An analysis of the risk in the loan portfolio, as well as management judgment, is used to determine the estimated appropriate amount of the allowance for loan losses. The Company’s allowance for loan losses is comprised of three primary components (general reserve, allocated reserves on non-impaired special mention and substandard loans, and allocated reserves on impaired loans). In addition, the unallocated portion of the allowance for loan losses, which is not considered a significant component of the overall allowance for loan losses, primarily relates to the inherent imprecision and and potential volatility of the allowance for loan losses calculation and the qualitative judgments involved. See Part I. Item 1. “Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 7: Allowance for Loan Losses” and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 for further information.

Net recoveries of $0.5 million were recorded in the second quarter of 2013, compared to $0.5 million of net charge-offs in the same period of 2012. The Company believes that commercial loans, which include construction and land loans, commercial real estate, and commercial and industrial loans, represent the greatest risk of loss due to the size and nature of these loans and the related collateral. Local economic and business conditions in the markets where our Bank offices are located have a significant impact on our commercial loan customers and their ability to service their loans. Of the $1.3 million in net charge-offs recorded in the six months of 2013, $1.4 million were on residential loans, $1.2 million were on commercial real estate loans, and $0.4 million were on home equity and consumer loans, offset by net recoveries of $1.0 million on commercial and industrial loans and $0.7 million on construction and land loans.
Nonperforming assets. The Company’s nonperforming assets include nonaccrual loans and OREO. OREO consists of real estate acquired through foreclosure proceedings and real estate acquired through acceptance of deeds in lieu of foreclosure. In addition, the Company may, under certain circumstances, restructure loans in troubled debt restructurings as a concession to a borrower when the borrower is experiencing financial distress. Such restructured loans are generally included in impaired loans. Nonperforming assets decreased $11.3 million, or 18%, to $53.1 million, or 0.89% of total assets at June 30, 2013, from $64.4 million, or 1.00% of total assets at December 31, 2012.

Does not include one 30-89 day delinquent loan held for sale totaling $0.3 million as of December 31, 2012.

In addition to loans 30-89 days past due and accruing, the Company had one loan totaling less than $0.1 million that was 90 days or greater past due but still on accrual status as of June 30, 2013, and three loans totaling $3.6 million as of December 31, 2012. These loans originated in the New England region.
Of the $52.3 million of loans on nonaccrual status at June 30, 2013, $29.1 million, or 55%, had a current payment status; $1.9 million, or 4%, were 30-89 days past due, and $21.3 million, or 41%, were 90 days or more past due. Of the $60.7 million of nonaccrual loans at December 31, 2012, $38.4 million, or 63%, had a current payment status, $11.0 million, or 18%, were 30-89 days past due, and $11.3 million, or 19%, were 90 days or more past due. In these situations, despite the loan’s current payment status, if the Bank has reason to believe it may not collect all principal and interest on the loan in accordance with the related contractual terms, the Bank will generally discontinue the accrual of interest income and will generally apply any payments received to principal. See Part I. Item 1. “Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 6: Loan Portfolio and Credit Quality” for additional detail on the payment status of nonaccrual loans.

In addition to loans 30-89 days past due and accruing, the Company had one construction and land loan totaling less than $0.1 million that was 90 days or greater past due but still on accrual status at June 30, 2013. As of December 31, 2012, the Company had one commercial and industrial loan totaling $0.3 million, one commercial real estate loan totaling $3.2 million, and one construction and land loan totaling less than $0.1 million that were more than 90 days past due but still on accrual status.
(2)
Does not include one loan held for sale, 30-89 days past due and accruing, totaling $0.3 million as of December 31, 2012.
Nonaccrual and delinquent loans are affected by many factors including economic and business conditions, such as interest rates and unemployment levels, and real estate collateral values, among others. In periods of prolonged economic declines, borrowers may become more severely impacted over time as liquidity levels decline and the borrower’s ability to continue to make payments deteriorates. With respect to real estate collateral values, the decline from the peak, as well as the value of the real estate at the time of origination versus the current value can impact the level of problem loans. For instance, if the loan to value ratio at the time of renewal has increased due to the decline in the real estate value since origination, the loan may no longer meet the Bank’s underwriting standards and may be considered for classification as a problem loan dependent upon a review of risk factors.
Delinquencies. At June 30, 2013, accruing loans with an aggregate balance of $11.5 million, or 0.24% of total loans, were 30-89 days past due, a decrease of $34.8 million, or 75%, compared to $46.4 million, or 0.96%, of total loans, at December 31, 2012. Loan delinquencies are generally the result of deteriorating economic conditions of the region and the resulting liquidity impact upon the client. The payment performance of delinquent clients can vary from month to month. Further deterioration in the credit condition of these delinquent loans could lead to the loans going to nonaccrual status and/or being downgraded. Downgrades would generally result in additional provision for loan losses. If the loan is put on nonaccrual status, the loan would generally be considered impaired and an impairment analysis would be performed to determine the

51



amount of impairment, if any. Based on the impairment analysis, the provision could be higher or lower than the amount of provision associated with a loan prior to its classification as impaired. Past due loans may be included with accruing substandard loans.
The Bank’s policy is to discontinue the accrual of interest on a loan when the collectability of principal or interest in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement is in doubt. When management determines that it is probable that the Bank will not collect all principal or interest on a loan in accordance with the original loan terms, or in accordance with its restructured terms if the loan is a TDR, the loan is designated as impaired. Impaired loans are generally included within the balance of nonaccrual loans. Impaired loans totaled $76.4 million as of June 30, 2013, a decrease of $5.1 million, or 6%, compared to $81.5 million as of December 31, 2012. As of June 30, 2013, $39.3 million of the impaired loans had $4.3 million in specific reserve allocations. The remaining $37.1 million of impaired loans did not have specific reserve allocations due to the adequacy of collateral, prior charge-offs taken, or interest collected and applied to principal. As of December 31, 2012, $34.1 million of impaired loans had $3.4 million in specific reserve allocations, and the remaining $47.4 million of impaired loans did not have specific reserve allocations.
Loans that are designated as impaired require an analysis to determine the amount of impairment, if any. Impairment would be indicated as a result of the carrying value of the loan exceeding the estimated collateral value, less costs to sell, for collateral dependent loans or the net present value of the projected cash flows, discounted at the loan’s contractual effective interest rate, for loans not considered to be collateral dependent. Generally, shortfalls on collateral dependent loans would result in the impairment amount being charged-off to the allowance for loan losses, and shortfalls on cash flow dependent loans may be carried as specific reserve allocations unless a known loss is determined to have occurred, in which case such known loss is charged-off.
In certain instances, although very infrequent, loans that have become 90 days or more past due may remain on accrual status if the value of the collateral securing the loan is sufficient to cover principal and interest and the loan is in the process of collection. There were less than $0.1 million of loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest at June 30, 2013 and $3.6 million at December 31, 2012.
The Bank’s general policy for returning a loan to accrual status requires the loan to be brought current and for the client to show a history of making timely payments (generally six consecutive months). For troubled debt restructured loans (“TDRs”), a return to accrual status generally requires timely payments for a period of six months in accordance with restructured terms, along with meeting other criteria.
The Bank may, under certain circumstances, restructure loans as a concession to borrowers who are experiencing financial difficulty. Such loans are classified as TDRs and are included in impaired loans. TDRs typically result from the Bank’s loss mitigation activities which, among other things, could include rate reductions, payment extensions, and/ or principal forgiveness. TDRs totaled $57.6 million and $54.5 million at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. Of the $57.6 million in TDRs at June 30, 2013, $29.3 million were on accrual status. Of the $54.5 million in TDRs at December 31, 2012, $26.7 million were on accrual status.
The Bank continues to evaluate the underlying collateral of each nonaccrual loan and pursue the collection of interest and principal. Where appropriate, the Bank obtains updated appraisals on collateral. Please refer to Part I. Item 1. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Note 6: Loans Receivable” for further information on nonaccruing loans.
Potential Problem Loans. Loans that evidence weakness or potential weakness related to repayment history, the borrower’s financial condition, or other factors are reviewed by the Bank’s management to determine if the loan should be adversely classified. Delinquent loans may or may not be adversely classified depending upon management’s judgment with respect to each individual loan. The Bank classifies certain loans as “substandard,” “doubtful,” or “loss” based on criteria consistent with guidelines provided by banking regulators. Potential problem loans consist of substandard accruing loans that were less than 90 days past due, but where known information about possible credit problems of the related borrowers causes management to have doubts as to the ability of such borrowers to comply with the present loan repayment terms and which may result in classification of such loans as nonperforming at some time in the future. Management cannot predict the extent to which economic conditions may worsen or other factors which may impact borrowers and the potential problem loans. Triggering events for loan downgrades include updated appraisal information, inability of borrowers to cover debt service payments, loss of tenants or notification by the tenant of non-renewal of lease, inability of borrowers to sell completed construction projects, and the inability of borrowers to sell properties. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that other loans will not become 90 days or more past due, be placed on nonaccrual, be restructured, or require increased allowance coverage and provision for loan losses.

52



The Company has identified approximately $69.8 million in potential problem loans as of June 30, 2013, a decrease of $20.3 million, or 23%, compared to $90.1 million as of December 31, 2012. This decrease was primarily due to potential problem commercial real estate loans which declined $21.5 million, or 34%, to $42.5 million as of June 30, 2013 compared to $64.0 million as of December 31, 2012. Numerous factors impact the level of potential problem loans including economic conditions and real estate values. These factors affect our borrowers’ liquidity and, in some cases, our borrowers’ ability to comply with loan covenants such as debt service coverage. When there is a loss of a major tenant in a commercial real estate building, the appraised value of the building generally declines. Loans may be downgraded when this occurs as a result of the additional risk to the borrower in obtaining a new tenant in a timely manner and negotiating a lease with similar or better terms than the previous tenant. In many cases, these loans are still current and paying as agreed, although future performance may be impacted.
Generally when a collateral dependent loan becomes impaired, an updated appraisal of the collateral, if appropriate, is obtained. If the impaired loan has not been upgraded to a performing status within a reasonable amount of time, the Bank continues to obtain newer appraisals, approximately every 12 to 18 months or sooner, if deemed necessary, especially during periods of declining values.
The past due status of a loan is determined in accordance with its contractual repayment terms. All loan types are reported past due when one scheduled payment is due and unpaid for 30 days or more.

Liquidity
Liquidity is defined as the Company’s ability to generate adequate cash to meet its needs for day-to-day operations and material long and short-term commitments. Liquidity risk is the risk of potential loss if the Company were unable to meet its funding requirements at a reasonable cost. The Company manages its liquidity based on demand, commitments, specific events and uncertainties to meet current and future financial obligations of a short-term nature. The Company’s objective in managing liquidity is to respond to the needs of depositors and borrowers as well as to earnings enhancement opportunities in a changing marketplace.
At June 30, 2013, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents amounted to $67.7 million. The Holding Company’s cash and cash equivalents amounted to $41.8 million at June 30, 2013. In April 2013, the Holding Company issued $50.0 million in Series D preferred stock for net proceeds of $47.8 million, and repurchased its Series B preferred stock for approximately $69.8 million in cash.
In the third and fourth quarters of 2013, the Company expects to repurchase $26.8 million of its junior subordinated debentures, which represents the debentures issued by trusts from three of the Bank’s legacy banks: the Gibraltar Financial Statutory Trust I, the First State (CA) Statutory Trust I, and the Charter Financial Trust I. For further information on these junior subordinated debentures, see Part II. Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data – Note 13: Junior Subordinated Debentures” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.
Management believes that the Company and the Holding Company have adequate liquidity to meet their commitments for the foreseeable future.
Management is responsible for establishing and monitoring liquidity targets as well as strategies to meet these targets. At June 30, 2013, consolidated cash and cash equivalents and securities available for sale, less securities pledged against current borrowings, amounted to $0.7 billion, or 13% of total assets, compared to $0.9 billion, or 14% of total assets at December 31, 2012.
The Company’s consolidated cash and cash equivalents and securities available for sale, less securities pledged decreased $0.1 billion, or 14%, in the first six months of 2013. This decrease is primarily due to the decrease in deposits. Future loan growth may depend upon the Company’s ability to grow its core deposit levels. In addition, the Company has access to available borrowings through the FHLB totaling $800.0 million as of June 30, 2013 compared to $794.4 million at December 31, 2012. Combined, this liquidity totals $1.6 billion, or 26% of assets and 34% of total deposits as of June 30, 2013 compared to $1.7 billion, or 26% of assets and 34% of total deposits as of December 31, 2012.
The Bank has various internal policies and guidelines regarding liquidity, both on and off balance sheet, loans to assets ratio, and limits on the use of wholesale funds. These policies and or guidelines require certain minimum or maximum balances or ratios be maintained at all times. In light of the provisions in the Bank’s internal liquidity policies and guidelines, the Bank carefully manages the amount and timing of future loan growth along with its relevant liquidity policies and balance sheet guidelines.

53



Holding Company Liquidity. The Company and some of the Company’s majority-owned affiliates hold put and call options that would require the Company to purchase (and the majority-owned affiliates to sell) the remaining noncontrolling interests in these companies at the then fair value generally as determined by the respective agreements. At June 30, 2013, the estimated maximum redemption value for these affiliates related to outstanding put options was $17.7 million, all of which could be redeemed within the next 12 months, under certain circumstances, and is classified on the consolidated balance sheets as redeemable noncontrolling interests. These put and call options are discussed in detail in Part II. Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data - Note 14: Noncontrolling Interests” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.
The Holding Company’s primary sources of funds are dividends from its affiliates, access to the capital and debt markets, and private equity investments. The Holding Company recognized $4.5 million in net income from discontinued operations during the six months ended June 30, 2013. The majority of this amount related to a revenue sharing agreement with Westfield Capital Management Company, LLC (“Westfield”). Other than the revenue sharing agreement with Westfield, divestitures are not ongoing sources of funds for the Holding Company. Dividends from the Bank are limited by various regulatory requirements relating to capital adequacy and retained earnings. See Part II. Item 5. “Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholders Matters, and Issuers Purchases of Equity Securities” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 for further details.
The Bank has paid dividends to the Holding Company depending on its profitability and asset growth. If regulatory agencies were to require banks to increase their capital ratios, or impose other restrictions, it may limit the ability of the Bank to pay dividends to the Holding Company and/or limit the amount that the Bank could grow.
Although the Bank is currently above current regulatory requirements for capital, the Holding Company could downstream additional capital to increase the rate that the Bank could grow. Depending upon the amount of capital downstreamed by the Holding Company, the approval of the Holding Company’s board of directors may be required prior to the payment, if any.
The Company is required to pay interest quarterly on its junior subordinated debentures. Since 2010, the Company has been a party to an interest rate swap to hedge a portion of the cash flow associated with a junior subordinated debenture which converted from a fixed rate to a floating rate on December 30, 2010. The estimated cash outlay for the remaining six months of 2013 for the interest payments, including the effect of the cash flow hedge, is approximately $2.2 million based on the debt outstanding as of the date of this filing and estimated LIBOR.
The Company is required to pay cash dividends quarterly on its Series D preferred stock, issued in April 2013, at 6.95% per annum. The estimated cash outlay for the remaining six months of 2013 for the Series D preferred stock dividend payments is approximately $1.7 million.
The Company presently plans to pay cash dividends on its common stock on a quarterly basis dependent upon a number of factors such as profitability, Holding Company liquidity, and the Company’s capital levels. However, the ultimate declaration of dividends by the board of directors of the Company will depend on consideration of, among other things, recent financial trends and internal forecasts, regulatory limitations, alternative uses of capital deployment, general economic conditions, and pending regulatory changes to capital requirements. In January 2013, the Company increased its quarterly dividend from $0.01 per share to $0.05 per share. In July 2013, the Company increased its quarterly dividend to $0.07 per share. Based on the current dividend rate and estimated shares outstanding, the Company estimates the amount to be paid out in the remaining six months of 2013 for dividends to common shareholders will be approximately $11.1 million. In April 2013, the Company’s repurchased all of its Series B preferred stock and therefore will not pay additional dividends on these shares.
Bank Liquidity. The Bank has established various borrowing arrangements to provide additional sources of liquidity and funding. Management believes that the Bank currently has adequate liquidity available to respond to current demands. The Bank is a member of the FHLB of Boston, and as such, has access to short- and long-term borrowings from that institution. The FHLB can change the advance amounts that banks can utilize based on a bank’s current financial condition as obtained from publicly available data such as FDIC Call Reports. Decreases in the amount of FHLB borrowings available to the Bank would lower its liquidity and possibly limit the Bank’s ability to grow. Management believes that the Bank has adequate liquidity to meet its commitments for the foreseeable future.
In addition to the above liquidity, the Bank has access to the Federal Reserve discount window facility, which can provide short-term liquidity as “lender of last resort,” brokered deposits, and federal funds lines. The use of non-core funding sources, including brokered deposits and borrowings, by the Bank may be limited by regulatory agencies. Generally, the regulatory agencies prefer that banks rely on core-funding sources for liquidity.

54



From time to time, the Bank purchases federal funds from the FHLB and other banking institutions to supplement its liquidity position. At June 30, 2013, the Bank had unused federal fund lines of credit totaling $171.0 million with correspondent institutions to provide immediate access to overnight borrowings. At June 30, 2013, the Bank had outstanding borrowings of $65.0 million under these federal fund lines. At December 31, 2012, Bank had unused federal fund lines of credit totaling $236.0 million with correspondent institutions to provide immediate access to overnight borrowings.
If the Bank was no longer able to utilize the FHLB for borrowing, collateral currently used for FHLB borrowings could be transferred to other facilities such as the Federal Reserve’s discount window. In addition, the Bank could increase its usage of brokered deposits. Other borrowing arrangements may have higher rates than the FHLB would typically charge.

Capital Resources
Total shareholders’ equity at June 30, 2013 was $609.3 million, compared to $603.1 million at December 31, 2012, an increase of $6.2 million, or 1%. The increase in shareholders’ equity was primarily the result of net income and stock compensation, partially offset by dividends paid and the net result of issuance of the Series D preferred stock and the repurchase of the Series B preferred stock.
As a bank holding company, the Company is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements. For example, under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory guidelines. The Bank’s capital and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Similarly, the Company is also subject to capital requirements administered by the Federal Reserve with respect to certain non-banking activities, including adjustments in connection with off-balance sheet items.
To be categorized as “well capitalized,” the Company and the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the regulatory capital and capital ratios table, below. In addition, the Company and the Bank cannot be subject to any written agreement, order or capital directive or prompt corrective action to be considered “well capitalized.” Both the Company and the Bank maintain capital at levels that would be considered “well capitalized” as of June 30, 2013 under the applicable regulations.

The following table presents the Company’s and the Bank’s amount of regulatory capital and related ratios as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. Also presented are the capital guidelines established by the Federal Reserve, which pertain to the Company, and by the FDIC, which pertains to the Bank. To be categorized as “adequately capitalized” or “well capitalized,” the Company and the Bank must be in compliance with these ratios as long as the Company and/or the Bank are not subject to any written agreement, order, capital directive, or prompt corrective action directive. The Federal Reserve, the FDIC, and the Massachusetts Commissioner of Banks may impose higher capital ratios than those listed below based on the results of regulatory exams.

Bank regulatory authorities restrict the Bank from lending or advancing funds to, or investing in the securities of, the Company. Further, these authorities restrict the amounts available for the payment of dividends by the Bank to the Company.
As of June 30, 2013, the Company has sponsored the creation of, or assumed sponsorship of, five statutory trusts for the sole purpose of issuing trust preferred securities and investing the proceeds in junior subordinated debentures of the Company. In accordance with ASC 810-10-55, Consolidation - Overall - Implementation Guidance and Illustrations - Variable Interest Entities, these statutory trusts created by, or assumed by, the Company are not consolidated into the Company’s financial statements; however, the Company reflects the amounts of junior subordinated debentures payable to the preferred stockholders of statutory trusts as debt in its financial statements. As of June 30, 2013, all $126.0 million of the net balance of these trust preferred securities qualified as Tier I capital. As of December 31, 2012, all $136.5 million of the net balance of these trust preferred securities qualified as Tier I capital.

Results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 versus June 30, 2012
Net Income. The Company recorded net income from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 of $19.5 million and $31.9 million, respectively, compared to $12.3 million and $21.1 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2012. Net income attributable to the Company, which includes income from both continuing and discontinued operations, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 was $21.3 million and $34.5 million, respectively, compared to $14.2 million and $23.7 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2012.
The Company recognized diluted EPS from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 of $0.08 and $0.21 per share, respectively, compared to $0.14 and $0.23 per share, respectively, for the same periods in 2012. Diluted EPS attributable to common shareholders, which includes both continuing and discontinued operations, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 was $0.11 and $0.26 per share, respectively, compared to $0.17 and $0.28 per share, respectively, for the same periods in 2012. Net income from continuing operations in both 2013 and 2012 was offset by charges that reduce income available to common shareholders. The second quarter 2013 repurchase of the Series B preferred stock for $69.8 million resulted in a deemed dividend, which reduced net income available to common shareholders by $11.7 million and

56



diluted EPS by $0.14 per share. See Part I. Item 1. “Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 2: Earnings Per Share” for further detail on these charges to income available to common shareholders.
The following discussions are based on the Company’s continuing operations, unless otherwise stated.

Net interest income. Net interest income represents the difference between interest earned, primarily on loans and investments, and interest paid on funding sources, primarily deposits and borrowings. Interest rate spread is the difference between the average rate earned on total interest-earning assets and the average rate paid on total interest-bearing liabilities. NIM is the amount of net interest income, on a fully taxable-equivalent (“FTE”) basis, expressed as a percentage of average interest-earning assets. The average rate earned on earning assets is the amount of annualized taxable equivalent interest income expressed as a percentage of average earning assets. The average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities is equal to annualized interest expense as a percentage of average interest-bearing liabilities. When credit quality declines and loans are placed on nonaccrual status, NIM can decrease because the same assets are earning less income. Loans that are graded substandard but are still accruing interest income of $69.8 million at June 30, 2013 could be placed on nonaccrual status if their credit quality declines further.
Net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $43.9 million, a decrease of $2.7 million, or 6%, compared to the same period in 2012. The decrease for the three months is due to lower average yields on loans and investments and increased volume of deposits, partially offset by an increase in volume of the loan portfolio, lower average rates paid on the Company’s deposits and borrowings, and a decrease in volume of borrowings. The NIM was 3.14% and 3.35% for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $88.2 million, a decrease of $3.2 million, or 3%, compared to the same period in 2012. The decrease for the six months is due to lower average yields on loans and investments and increased volume of deposits, partially offset by an increase in volume of the loan portfolio, lower average rates paid on the Company’s deposits and borrowings, and a decrease in volume of borrowings. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, NIM was 3.12%, a decrease of 19 basis points compared to the same period in 2012.
The following table presents the composition of the Company’s NIM on a FTE basis for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012; however, the discussion following these tables reflects non-FTE data.

Interest and Dividend Income. Interest and dividend income for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $51.1 million, a decrease of $5.8 million, or 10%, compared to the same period in 2012. Interest and dividend income for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $103.4 million, a decrease of $9.3 million, or 8%, compared to the same period in 2012. The decrease was primarily due to lower yields on loans and investments, partially offset by increased average loan volume, and a shift in the mix of interest-bearing assets from cash and investments into the loan portfolio.
The Bank generally has interest income that is either recovered or reversed related to nonaccruing loans each quarter. Based on the net amount recovered or reversed, the impact on interest income and related yields can be either positive or negative. In addition, the Bank collects prepayment penalties on certain commercial loans that pay off prior to maturity which could also impact interest income and related yields positively. The amount and timing of prepayment penalties varies from quarter to quarter.
Interest income on commercial loans (including construction loans), on a non-FTE basis, for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $30.3 million, a decrease of $2.8 million, or 9%, compared to the same period in 2012 as a result of a 52 basis point decrease in the average yield. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, commercial interest income was $60.7 million, a decrease of $3.8 million, or 6%, compared to the same period in 2012 as a result of a 52 basis point decrease in the average yield, partially offset by a 4% increase in the average balance. The increase in the average balance is related to the organic growth of the commercial loan portfolio at the Bank, as discussed above in Part I. Item 2. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis - Loan Portfolio and Credit Quality.” The decrease in the average yield is the result of market conditions leading to lower rates due to competition for higher quality loans.
Interest income on residential mortgage loans for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $16.1 million, a decrease of $1.9 million, or 10%, compared to the same period in 2012 as a result of a 45 basis point decrease in the average yield, partially offset by a 2% increase in the average balance. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, residential mortgage interest income was $33.0 million, a decrease of $2.8 million, or 8%, compared to the same period in 2012 as a result of a 45 basis point decrease in the average yield, partially offset by a 5% increase in the average balance. The decrease in the average yield was primarily due to adjustable rate mortgage (“ARM”) loans repricing to lower rates, clients refinancing into lower rates and new loan originations at historically low rates. The decline in U.S. Treasury yields over the repricing periods, the index to which the ARMs are typically linked, has decreased the yields on these mortgage loans. The increase in the average balances was due to the organic growth of the residential loan portfolio at the Bank.
Interest income on home equity and other consumer loans for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $2.0 million, a decrease of $0.4 million, or 16%, compared to the same period in 2012, as a result of a 29 basis point decrease in the average yield and a 7% decrease in the average balance. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, home equity and other consumer loan interest income was $4.0 million, a decrease of $1.1 million, or 22%, compared to the same period in 2012 as a result of a 38 basis point decrease in the average yield and a 12% decrease in the average balance. The decrease in average yield is primarily due to lower market rates on consumer loans. The decrease in average balance reflects lower client demand.
Investment income, on a non-FTE basis, for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $2.8 million, a decrease of $0.7 million, or 21%, compared to the same period in 2012, as a result of a 26 basis point decrease in the average yield and a 4% decrease in the average balance. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, investment income was $5.7 million, a decrease of $1.6 million, or 22%, compared to the same period in 2012, as a result of a 29 basis point decrease in the average yield and a a 5% decrease in the average balance. The decrease in the average balance is primarily due to timing and volume of deposit balances as compared to the level of loans outstanding. Investment decisions are made based on anticipated liquidity, loan demand, and asset-liability management considerations.
Interest expense. Interest expense on deposits and borrowings for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $7.2 million, a decrease of $3.1 million, or 30%, compared to the same period in 2012. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, interest expense on deposits and borrowings was $15.2 million , a decrease of $6.1 million, or 29% compared to the same period in 2012.

60



Interest expense on deposits for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $3.1 million, a decrease of $1.3 million, or 30%, compared to the same period in 2012, as a result of a 15 basis point decrease in the average rate paid, partially offset by a 2% increase in the average balance. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, interest expense on deposits was $6.9 million, a decrease of $2.4 million, or 26%, compared to the same period in 2012, as a result of a 15 basis point decrease in the average rate paid, partially offset by a 4% increase in the average balance. The decrease in the average rates paid was primarily due to the Bank’s ability to lower interest rates on all account types due to the low interest rate environment.
Interest paid on borrowings for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $4.1 million, a decrease of $1.8 million, or 30%, compared to the same period in 2012, as a result of a 39 basis point decrease in the average rate paid and a 19% decrease in the average balance. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, interest paid on borrowings was $8.3 million, a decrease of $3.7 million, or 31%, as a result of a 30 basis point decrease in the average rate paid and a 22% decrease in the average balance. The decrease in the average rate paid is primarily due to the higher-rate FHLB borrowings maturing and being replaced at lower rates, and the repurchase of a portion of the Company’s junior subordinated debt and the prepayment of repurchase agreements in 2012 and the first half of 2013.
Provision/ (credit) for loan losses. The provision/ (credit) for loan losses for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was a credit of $2.0 million, a decrease of $3.7 million, or over 100%, compared to the same period in 2012. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, the provision/ (credit) for loan losses was a credit of $2.0 million, a decrease of $7.7 million, or over 100%, compared to the same period in 2012. The credit to the provision is primarily due to recoveries of previously charged-off loan amounts, a reduction in adversely-classified loans, and continued improvement in credit quality.
The provision/ (credit) for loan losses is determined as a result of the required level of the allowance for loan losses, estimated by management, which reflects the inherent risk of loss in the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet dates. The factors used by management to determine the level of the allowance for loan losses include the trends in problem loans, economic and business conditions, strength of management, real estate collateral values, and underwriting standards. For further details, see Part I. Item 2. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis - Loan Portfolio and Credit Quality” above.
Fees and other income. Fees and other income for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $40.9 million, an increase of $12.8 million, or 46%, compared to the same period in 2012. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, fees and other income was $71.5 million, an increase of $16.0 million, or 29%, compared to the same period in 2012. The increase is primarily due to the $10.6 million gain on sale of the Pacific Northwest offices, which is included in other income. Other factors affecting the increase are higher investment management and trust fees, higher wealth advisory fees, and higher gain on sales of loans, partially offset by lower gain from the repurchase of debt, lower gain on the sales of investments and lower gain on the sale of OREO property.
Investment management and trust fees for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $17.3 million, an increase of $1.9 million, or 12%, compared to the same period in 2012. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, investment management and trust fee income was $34.2 million, an increase of $3.5 million, or 11%, compared to the same period in 2012. AUM at the Bank and Investment Managers increased $1.6 billion, or 14%, in the past twelve months to $13.3 billion at June 30, 2013. The increase is due to market appreciation. Investment management and trust fees from the Bank and Investment Managers are typically calculated based on a percentage of AUM, and approximately 48% of the second quarter 2013 investment management and trust fee revenues were earned based upon beginning-of-period (March 31, 2013) AUM for the quarter. Changes in revenue generally lag behind changes in AUM, and accordingly, we expect lower levels of investment management and trust revenue in the third quarter of 2013, as compared to the second quarter of 2013.
Wealth advisory fee income for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $10.3 million, an increase of $1.1 million, or 12%, compared to the same period in 2012. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, wealth advisory fee income was $20.4 million, an increase of $2.0 million, or 11%, compared to the same period in 2012. AUM as of June 30, 2013 managed by the Wealth Advisors was $8.5 billion, an increase of $1.0 billion, or 14%, compared to June 30, 2012.
Gain on sale of loans, net, for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $0.7 million, an increase of $0.3 million, or 73%, compared to the same period in 2012. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, gain on sale of loans, net, was $1.9 million, an increase of $1.1 million, or over 100%, compared to the same period in 2012. In the first quarter of 2013, the Bank transferred $9.1 million in loans from its loan portfolio to loans held for sale. These loans were subsequently sold for a gain of $0.2 million. The remaining increase related to the volume of loans originated for sale.
Gain on repurchase of debt for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $0.6 million. During the first six months of 2013, the Company repurchased $10.5 million of its junior subordinated debt. The Company used available cash on hand to repurchase the securities.

61



Gain on sale of Pacific Northwest offices for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 was $10.6 million. The sale of the Bank’s three Pacific Northwest offices, which was announced in December 2012, was completed in May 2013.
Other Income for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $0.2 million, an increase of $0.5 million compared to the same period in 2012. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, other income was $0.2 million, an increase of $0.2 million compared to the same period in 2012. The increase is due to investment gains in the Company’s Rabbi Trust investments.
Operating Expense. Operating expense for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $56.7 million, an increase of $1.4 million, or 2%, compared to the same period in 2012. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, operating expense was $113.3 million, an increase of $2.3 million, or 2%, compared to the same period in 2012. Included in operating expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 are restructuring expenses of $0.6 million and $0.7 million, respectively. Excluding restructuring, operating expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 increased $1.9 million, or 4%, and $3.0 million, or 3%, respectively. The increase for the three months ended June 30, 2013 is primarily due to increases in marketing expenses, a liability restructuring charge and a tax related reserve, partially offset by decreases in professional fees, occupancy and equipment and salaries and employee benefits. The increase for the six months ended June 30, 2013 is primarily due to increases in marketing expenses, contract services and data processing, a liability restructuring charge, and a tax related reserves, partially offset by decreases in professional fees.
Salaries and employee benefits expense, the largest component of operating expense, for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $34.1 million, a decrease of $0.4 million, or 1%, compared to the same period in 2012. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, salaries and employee benefits was $71.5 million, an increase of $0.1 million, or less than 1% compared to the same period in 2012. The decrease for the three months ended June 30, 2013 is primarily due to efficiencies resulting from the Bank merger and management restructuring, partially offset by higher commission-based compensation and post-employment benefits.
Contract services and data processing expense for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $1.5 million, an increase of $0.1 million, or 10%, compared to the same period in 2012. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, contract services and data processing expense was $3.1 million, an increase of $0.5 million, or 20%, compared to the same period in 2012. The increase is primarily related to higher custody fees and system expenses, which are based on AUM levels.
Professional services for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $2.6 million, a decrease of $0.4 million, or 14%, compared to the same period in 2012. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, professional services was $5.2 million, a decrease of $0.7 million, or 12%, compared to the same period in 2012. The decrease is primarily due to lower consulting and legal expenses for loan workout matters, as well as decreases in director fees as a result of the Bank merger, partially offset by increased audit fees.
Other expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $6.2 million, an increase of $2.0 million, or 49%, compared to the same period in 2012. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, other expenses was $9.9 million, an increase of $1.9 million, or 23%, compared to the same period in 2012. The increase is primarily due to a liability restructuring charge and a tax related reserve.
Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense for continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 was an expense of $10.6 million, and $16.4 million, respectively. The effective tax rate for continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was 34.0%, compared to an effective tax rate of 30.1% for the same period in 2012. See Part I. Item 1. “Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 9: Income Taxes” for further detail.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2013-02, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. The amendments to this update require entities to present information about reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income in a single note or on the face of the financial statements. The new guidance was effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted. The Company did not early adopt. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

62



In July 2012, the FASB issued updated guidance, ASU 2012-02, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. The amendments in this update regarding the impairment testing applicable to indefinite-lived intangible assets, is similar to the impairment guidance issued in ASU 2011-08, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment, applicable to goodwill. Under the updated guidance, an entity may assess qualitative factors (such as changes in management, key personnel, strategy, key technology or customers) that may impact the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset and lead to the determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the asset is less than its carrying value. If an entity determines that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the intangible asset is less than its carrying value, an impairment test must be performed. The impairment test requires an entity to calculate the estimated fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset. If the carrying value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeds its estimated fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the excess. The updated guidance is effective for annual and interim indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012 and early adoption is permitted provided the company has not yet performed its 2012 impairment test or issued its financial statements. The Company did not early adopt. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In December 2011, the FASB issued new guidance, ASU 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities and in January 2013, the FASB issued, ASU 2013-01, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. ASU 2011-11 requires entities to disclose both gross and net information about both instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the statement of financial position and instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting arrangement. ASU 2013-01 limits the scope of disclosures to derivatives, repurchase agreements and securities lending arrangements. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after January 1, 2013 and requires a retrospective application for all comparative periods which are presented. The adoption of these ASUs did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Item 3.     Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
There have been no material changes in the Interest Rate Sensitivity and Market Risk as described in Part II. Item 7A. “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk – Interest Rate Sensitivity and Market Risk” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Item 4.     Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, the Company has evaluated, with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures. In designing and evaluating the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, the Company and its management recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only a reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures.
Based on such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2013 in ensuring that material information required to be disclosed by the Company, including its consolidated subsidiaries, was made known to the certifying officers by others within the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reporting within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms. On a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates the disclosure controls and procedures, and may from time to time make changes aimed at enhancing their effectiveness and to ensure that the Company’s systems evolve with its business.
(b) Change in internal controls over financial reporting.
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2013, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II. Other Information

Item 1.     Legal Proceedings
The Company is involved in various legal proceedings. In the opinion of management, final disposition of these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or results of operations of the Company.

Item 1A.     Risk Factors
In addition to the risk factor discussed below and other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risks described in Part I. Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 as filed with the SEC.
We will become subject to more stringent capital requirements.
The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, or the “Dodd-Frank Act,” required the federal banking agencies to establish minimum leverage and risk-based capital requirements for insured banks and their holding companies. The federal banking agencies issued a joint final rule, or the “Final Capital Rule,” that implements the Basel III capital standards and establishes the minimum capital levels required under the Dodd-Frank Act. We must comply with the Final Capital Rule by January 1, 2015. The Final Capital Rule establishes a minimum common equity Tier I capital ratio of 6.5% of risk-weighted assets for a “well capitalized” institution and increases the minimum Tier I capital ratio for a “well capitalized” institution from 6% to 8%. Additionally, the Final Capital Rule requires an institution to maintain a 2.5% common equity Tier I capital conservation buffer over the 6.5% minimum risk-based capital requirement to avoid restrictions on the ability to pay dividends, discretionary bonuses, and to engage in share repurchases. If these requirements were in place at June 30, 2013, the Company would meet these minimum requirements. The Final Capital Rule permanently grandfathers trust preferred securities issued before May 19, 2010, subject to a limit of 25% of Tier I capital. The Final Capital Rule increases the required capital for certain categories of assets, including high volatility construction real estate loans and certain exposures related to securitizations; however, the Final Capital Rule retains the current capital treatment of residential mortgages. Under the Final Capital Rule, we may make a one-time, permanent election to continue to exclude accumulated other comprehensive income from capital. If we do not make this election, unrealized gains and losses will be included in the calculation of our regulatory capital. Implementation of these standards, or any other new regulations, may adversely affect our ability to pay dividends, or require us to reduce business levels or raise capital, including in ways that may adversely affect our results of operations or financial condition.

None.

Item 3.     Defaults Upon Senior Securities
None.

Item 4.     Mine Safety Disclosures
Not applicable.
